  • Rachel Zegler is in a new Netflix animation called Spellbound about a family going through divorce. While Rachel Zegler has caused previous scandal around West Side Story and Snow White, Spellbound is causing controversy on it's own. Is this just a case of bad decisions, or an alignment of moral values that the audience doesn't like? Is Spellbound worth watching?

    Rachel Zegler has been followed by scandal and controversy across her career, but for once this isn't her fault. Spellbound itself is the one causing the problem here due to it's messaging that it decides to inflict on parents. What's worse is the story uses this theme as a "twist" so that it's too late for parents to realise what it's about until they've already watched most of it and the kids have found out too. But it's not just that they're teaching children that divorce is actually good and beneficial, but that they think it's a beautiful story that everyone should learn about as children. Rather than trying to discourage this, they're encouraging it. This is not the point of fairy tales, and it's wrong to try and subvert them in this way. But what did you think of what you saw? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)

    UP. That's a Disney/Pixar movie that handled adult themes very well. But they didn’t celebrate them. They viewed them as the losses they were. A couple who had to come to terms with not having children. A man who had to mourn the only family he had. A boy grieving the loss of his absentee father (Russell's dad had a girlfriend and didn’t have time for him.) But the movie didn’t bash you over the head with it and push the idea a "child free" life is a blessing or Russell doesn't need a father in his life. These two characters missing the bits in their life reflected in each other made do and filled those holes as best they could.
    Movies geared towards children that handle harsh realities exist. It's just that when adults make them, they don't delude the child or themselves that brokenness is a good thing.

    The way she talks about her co-star Andrew Burnap is completely disrespectful. Explaining because Andrew is a male that he is not important and all his screen time could be cut, '' It's Hollywood baby ''
    Imagine if the roles are reversed, And a male actor said this about a female co-star. Saying because the actress is female that she's not important and she could be cut out, It's Hollywood baby. There would be a out cry of sexism.
    It's a double standard that she is not bashed in the media for this specific reason.

My wife also comes from split parents, so we both have negative feelings about divorce. Luckily we both feel like we met our match and have no desire to separate 15 years later with 2 children. We hope our example of a good marriage will encourage them to seek a lifelong relationship and marriage as well.

    Divorce is not a good thing, and it never will be. It is something that happens and it’s okay to teach kids how to cope with it, because that’s what divorce is. It’s something that you cope with, not celebrate. I mean that’s like making a fairy tale about how wonderful it is when a friend moves away or when a pet dies.
    Cause do you know what a divorce basically is? It’s two people breaking a vow to love each other always, it’s finding out that you don’t love someone anymore or that you never did, and that is heartbreaking.
    It’s one thing to teach children to accept something like this but brainwashing them into thinking it’s a good thing? That’s sick!

    Also: kids watching this movie - regardless if they have parents going through a divorce or just parents who don’t get along - don’t need to be shown that divorce is normal. Divorce is expensive, and if kids think it’s so easy, yet their parents stay together, it just ultimately sends them an unrealistic message. Not to mention it’s just promoting being selfish rather than sacrifice for your family.

    Mrs. Doubtfire, a movie that came out 31 years ago, handled the subject of divorce with more tact than this movie did.
    _"Oh, my dear Katie. You know, some parents, when they're angry, they get along much better when they don't live together. They don't fight all the time, and they can become better people, and much better mummies and daddies for you. And sometimes they get back together. And sometimes they don't, dear. And if they don't, don't blame yourself. Just because they don't love each other anymore, doesn't mean that they don't love you_ ."

    my parents lived as a happy family with 3 children (or so I thought) and got divorced when I was 3-4 years old. Thankfully, my siblings were 12+ years older than me, which affected them less but still. Now I know that they had problems they were not able to discuss together due to their reasons and much more stuff had happened, but nevertheless - this is a disasterous thing for a kid, no one is fucking happy. Even if the happiness comes in a while (years) to parents it might not come to the child. First time hearing about this movie but I am so angry with it.

    Well, as per usual, Tolkien tackled this subject much better. In Unfinished Tales, the story of Aldarion and Erendis portrays a separation that is anything but celebrated. Their marriage falls apart due to Aldarion's broken promises and his prolonged seafaring absence, which led Erendis to lose faith and move to a new home surrounded by bitter women and their daughter. When Aldarion finally returns, he is heartbroken to find the family shattered. Inspired by his daughter's spirit, he names her the next ruler of Númenor, but his relationship with Erendis remains unresolved.
    What makes this story so powerful is its nuance. Aldarion's absences weren’t frivolous; he was working with the Elves to prepare against Sauron. However, he never confided in Erendis, and their inability to communicate led to a tragic outcome. Tolkien doesn’t shy away from showing the heartbreak of their separation-Aldarion lamenting that he wished Erendis had come back ‘in a huff’ rather than refuse to set aside her pride is devastating. The tragedy lies in how much they loved each other but were too proud to have an honest conversation.
    As someone who has volunteered at women’s abuse centers and witnessed real, concrete reasons for divorce, this framing in Spellbound is an affront. Divorce is sometimes a necessary and painful escape, but to present it as a celebratory outcome strips away the gravity of such situations. This approach diminishes the struggle and emotional toll that real-life separations entail.
    I grew up loving films like The Hunchback of Notre Dame, which showed that animated films can handle complex, even morally ambiguous themes. However, those themes were clear from the outset, allowing parents to decide if the content was appropriate for their children. With Spellbound, the final act surprise of glorifying divorce as a happy ending robs parents of that choice and risks normalizing something that should be approached with care, empathy, and understanding.
    Tolkien’s story shows us that separations, especially those driven by miscommunication, are not triumphs-they are tragedies. And that’s the lens through which such themes should be viewed, not as the magnum opus Spellbound seems to believe.

    As one who has grown up as a child of an "amicable" divorce I can tell everyone that even if your parents can communicate without trouble its NOT a pleasant experience. I grew up in what I refer to as a cold war, my parents communicated and was kind to each other, but underneath there were always tensions.
    Its not fun having two birthdays or two Christmases', yeah yeah the presents are nice, but the one thing I always wanted was for my parents to be together, to celebrate together and to not live hours apart. Everyone is always quick to say: "Well, isn't it better than your parents fighting all the time?" Yes, of course its better but it still hurts like h***. It still ruins the family that should be showing the child what a family can be and should be in the ideal situation...
    Its not "fun" or "normal", its not a "fairytale" - its a harsh reality that children deal with every day and this is so wrong. We dont want to normalize the hurt children feel when their parents get a divorce. Its not something that children rejoice about! I dont know who thought of this, but if I had gone to see this with my small cousins I would be so angry - I dont want them to experience just a fraction of a divorce...

    So, what bothers me about this is it’s just proof that society is trying to normalize divorce. The entire point of marriage is that you do everything you can to work through fights, life events, hard times as a team even when it’s hard. This movie’s message is, “give up, it’s ok it better to separate than it is to go through hard times and feel bad”. And if marriages can’t last due to fighting, then what can?

    My son literally told me that the message of the movie is if you don't get along, you can just get divorced. I was a bit surprised since I watched the first part with him and thought it looked cute. He's 10 and is allowed to watch rated R movies as long as I have okayed it and we watch it together. So he's seen Aliens, Predator, Die Hard, Speed, World War Z, and so forth. I am starting to feel more concern over kids movies that have this subversive moral messaging than outright violent or scary content where he clearly understands the difference between good and bad. Right now we are working our way through the Rocky movies, and I am much happier with that messaging than the current movies made for children.

It changed my life forever. I prayed for it for 14 years.
